  Boring and predictable
  
  Unimpressive and boring. It's the kind of canned acting and script that should be relegated to late-night television. Skip it.

  Same old, but not too bad really
  
  Yes, I know - the whole Harrison Ford thing is getting a bit dated now, although the older he gets the more variation in expression he seems to find. The plot ... read more »

  It's ok
  
  Not a bad film - action packed. It's what you expect from Harrison Ford films, still going strong. Not too bad a film.

  An uncomplicated good watch!
  
  Thoroughly enjoyable kidnapping yarn that is unpretentious, gripping and moves at a good pace throughout. Harrison Ford is brilliant as the under pressure bank ... read more »

  Average film
  
  Rather predictable, but has a good pace which keeps the viewer somewhat entertained. I would probably place this in the C category of films.

  Sorry Harrison!
  
  Typical formulaic Harrison Ford offering; Have seen him in so many of these types of film; Predictable in every way; Did not enjoy this film.

  Not the best of Ford's films
  
  Perhaps it is the over-exposure of the trailers being prompted over and over giving away far too much of the plot, the movie loses much of the tension and ... read more »
